Our nation is being preyed upon by a military industrial complex that is propped up by war profiteers, corrupt politicians and foreign governments.

America has so much to offer—creativity, ingenuity, vast natural resources, a rich heritage, a beautifully diverse populace, a freedom foundation unrivaled anywhere in the world, and opportunities galore—and yet our birthright is being sold out from under us so that power-hungry politicians, greedy military contractors, and bloodthirsty war hawks can make a hefty profit at our expense.

Don’t be fooled into thinking that your hard-earned tax dollars are being used for national security and urgent military needs.

It’s all a ruse.

You know what happens to tax dollars that are left over at the end of the government’s fiscal year? Government agencies—including the Department of Defense—go on a “use it or lose it” spending spree so they can justify asking for money in the next fiscal year.

According to an investigative report by Open the Government, among the items purchased during the last month of the fiscal year when government agencies go all out to get rid of these “use it or lose it” funds: Wexford Leather club chair ($ 9,241), china tableware ($ 53,004), alcohol ($ 308,994), golf carts ($ 673,471), musical equipment including pianos, tubas, and trombones ($ 1.7 million), lobster tail and crab ($ 4.6 million), iPhones and iPads ($ 7.7 million), and workout and recreation equipment ($ 9.8 million).

Anyone who suggests that the military needs more money is either criminally clueless or equally corrupt, because the military isn’t suffering from lack of funding—it’s suffering from lack of proper oversight.

Certainly, nothing about the way the government budgets its funds puts America’s needs first.

The nation’s educational system is pathetic (young people are learning nothing about their freedoms or their government). The infrastructure is antiquated and growing more outdated by the day. The health system is overpriced and inaccessible to those who need it most. The supposedly robust economy is belied by the daily reports of businesses shuttering storefronts and declaring bankruptcy. And our so-called representative government is a sham.

If this is a formula for making America great again, it’s not working.

The White House wants taxpayers to accept that the only way to reduce the nation’s ballooning deficit is by cutting “entitlement” programs such as Social Security and Medicare, yet the glaring economic truth is that at the end of the day, it’s the military industrial complex—and not the sick, the elderly or the poor—that is pushing America towards bankruptcy.

We have become a debtor nation, and the government is sinking us deeper into debt with every passing day that it allows the military industrial complex to call the shots.

Simply put, the government cannot afford to maintain its over-extended military empire.

Having been co-opted by greedy defense contractors, corrupt politicians and incompetent government officials, America’s expanding military empire is bleeding the country dry at a rate of more than $ 32 million per hour.

The U.S. government is spending money it doesn’t have on a military empire it can’t afford.

As investigative journalist Uri Friedman puts it, for more than 15 years now, the United States has been fighting terrorism with a credit card, “essentially bankrolling the wars with debt, in the form of purchases of U.S. Treasury bonds by U.S.-based entities like pension funds and state and local governments, and by countries like China and Japan.”

For decades, the DoD’s leaders and accountants have been perpetrating a gigantic, unconstitutional accounting fraud, deliberately cooking the books to mislead the Congress and drive the DoD’s budgets ever higher, regardless of military necessity. DoD has literally been making up numbers in its annual financial reports to Congress—representing trillions of dollars’ worth of seemingly nonexistent transactions—knowing that Congress would rely on those misleading reports when deciding how much money to give the DoD the following year.

Unfortunately, the outlook isn’t much better for the spending that can be tracked.

A government audit found that defense contractor Boeing has been massively overcharging taxpayers for mundane parts, resulting in tens of millions of dollars in overspending. As the report noted, the American taxpayer paid:

$ 71 for a metal pin that should cost just 4 cents; $ 644.75 for a small gear smaller than a dime that sells for $ 12.51: more than a 5,100 percent increase in price. $ 1,678.61 for another tiny part, also smaller than a dime, that could have been bought within DoD for $ 7.71: a 21,000 percent increase. $ 71.01 for a straight, thin metal pin that DoD had on hand, unused by the tens of thousands, for 4 cents: an increase of over 177,000 percent.

That price gouging has become an accepted form of corruption within the American military empire is a sad statement on how little control “we the people” have over our runaway government.

The U.S. government is not making the world any safer. It’s making the world more dangerous. It is estimated that the U.S. military drops a bomb somewhere in the world every 12 minutes. Since 9/11, the United States government has directly contributed to the deaths of around 500,000. Every one of those deaths was paid for with taxpayer funds.

Those who call the shots in the government—those who push the military industrial complex’s agenda—those who make a killing by embroiling the U.S. in foreign wars—have not heeded Johnson’s warning.

The U.S. government is not making American citizens any safer. The repercussions of America’s military empire have been deadly, not only for those innocent men, women and children killed by drone strikes abroad but also those here in the United States.

All of this carnage is being carried out with the full support of the American people, or at least with the proxy that is our taxpayer dollars.

The government is destabilizing the economy, destroying the national infrastructure through neglect and a lack of resources, and turning taxpayer dollars into blood money with its endless wars, drone strikes and mounting death tolls.

As Martin Luther King Jr. recognized, under a military empire, war and its profiteering will always take precedence over the people’s basic human needs.

Similarly, President Dwight Eisenhower warned us not to let the profit-driven war machine endanger our liberties or democratic processes.

“Every gun that is made, every warship launched, every rocket fired signifies, in the final sense, a theft from those who hunger and are not fed, those who are cold and are not clothed. This world in arms is not spending money alone. It is spending the sweat of its laborers, the genius of its scientists, the hopes of its children. The cost of one modern heavy bomber is this: a modern brick school in more than 30 cities. It is two electric power plants, each serving a town of 60,000 population. It is two fine, fully equipped hospitals. It is some fifty miles of concrete pavement. We pay for a single fighter plane with a half million bushels of wheat. We pay for a single destroyer with new homes that could have housed more than 8,000 people. This is, I repeat, the best way of life to be found on the road the world has been taking. This is not a way of life at all, in any true sense. Under the cloud of threatening war, it is humanity hanging from a cross of iron. […] Is there no other way the world may live?”

We failed to heed Eisenhower’s warning.

The illicit merger of the armaments industry and the government that Eisenhower warned against has come to represent perhaps the greatest threat to the nation today.

As long as “we the people” continue to allow the government to wage its costly, meaningless, endless wars abroad, the American homeland will continue to suffer: our roads will crumble, our bridges will fail, our schools will fall into disrepair, our drinking water will become undrinkable, our communities will destabilize, our economy will tank, crime will rise, and our freedoms will suffer.

So who will save us?

As I make clear in my book, Battlefield America: The War on the American People, we’d better start saving ourselves: one by one, neighbor to neighbor, through grassroots endeavors, by pushing back against the police state where it most counts—in our communities first and foremost, and by holding fast to what binds us together and not allowing politics and other manufactured nonrealities to tear us apart.

Start today. Start now. Do your part.

Literally and figuratively, the buck starts and stops with “we the people.”

Isn’t there a better way to vote?

by Witsnews

Voter fraud is on the rise, the same politicians keep getting elected over & over & over again….and we wonder why nothing ever gets done in Washington. One has to wonder how much of an influence voter fraud and the illegal vote has had on our current political state in this country.

Isn’t it time to change the way we vote, so that our votes actually count, instead of being effectively nullified by voter fraud?

Here are a few suggestions:

Every state should start requiring photo ID and proof of citizenship from every voter. (no-brainer)

Hand stamping procedures or similar tools for verifying one vote per person should be implemented in all states.

Early voting by mail, and absentee voting should be strictly limited to only those cases where legitimate need is proven. “Ballot harvesting”, a favorite among Democrats in California which allows anyone to collect absentee ballots unsupervised, should be outlawed.

Voting machines:

Any state using electronic voting machines should require that the machines provide multiple copy paper receipts showing a date/time stamp, voting location, machine ID number, and list all the candidate choices the voter selected.

One copy remains with the voter who initials all the receipts to verify that the information on the receipts is correct, and one copy goes to a representative of each political party.

After the electronic votes are all tabulated, staff from each political party represented in the election proceed to hand count each and every voter receipt while being monitored by reps from each of the parties. The totals from the hand counts are then compared to the results of the machine tabulations, and all results are immediately released to the public.

If the winners from the machine tabulations match those found from the hand counts from all political parties, then an official winner is declared.

If there is a discrepancy from the hand counts of any of the political parties large enough to show a different winner than what the electronic tabulations showed, then an equal number of staff from all parties represented must combine to do an additional final manual re-count.

The results of this final count determine the official winner. If the electronic tabulations are overruled by the results of the hand counts, all voting machines involved in the process are repaired or replaced immediately.

This is just a short list. There are many other options which should be considered such as increased use of security cameras, volunteer programs to provide proper oversight, legal aid for filing fraud reports, etc.

The future of the republic is at stake here, we have to get this right…and soon.

When the Muslims Came….

Before:

and After:

When the Muslim refugees came, I didn’t protest….they were just poor refugees.

When they built mosques and Islamic cultural centers, I didn’t protest….they had the right to pray to Allah.

When they demanded only Halal food in schools, I didn’t protest….they can only eat what the Koran allows them to eat.

When they gang-raped women and girls, I didn’t protest…..rapes occur in every culture, and they have nothing to do with Islam.

When they carried out terror attacks, I didn’t protest….it was only a few extremists, who didn’t represent true Islam.

When they demanded Sharia Law zones, I didn’t protest….they needed their own space, and we live in a free country.

When they took their seats in government, I didn’t protest…..they have a right to be represented.

When they introduced Islamic Sharia Law, demanding that it apply to the entire population…….it was too late for me to protest.

The duty of a true Patriot….

Slavery, Terrorism & Islam – by Dr. Peter Hammond – Paperback

Western Civilization is
under a full frontal
assault, and the leftists
are the ones holding
the door wide open to
their own demise!

Islam is not a religion,
nor is it a cult. Islam
has religious, legal,
political, economic and
military components.

Islamization occurs when
there are sufficient Muslims
in a country to agitate for
their so-called “religious rights”.

When politically correct and
culturally diverse societies
agree to “reasonable” Muslim
demands for their “religious
rights”, they also get
the other components under
the table.

Here’s how it works:

As long as the Muslim
population remains around 1%
of any given country, they
will be regarded as a
peace-loving minority and
not as a threat to anyone.
In fact, they may be
featured in articles and
films, and stereotyped for
their colorful uniqueness:

From 5% on, they exercise
an inordinate influence in
proportion to their percentage
of the population. They
will push for the introduction
of halal (clean by Islamic
standards) food, thereby
securing food preparation jobs
for Muslims. They will increase pressure on supermarket chains to feature it on their shelves…along with threats for failure to comply:

At this point, they will work
to get the ruling government
to allow them to rule
themselves under Sharia, the
Islamic Law. The ultimate
goal of Islam is to convert
the world, and to establish
Sharia law over the entire
Earth.

When Muslims reach 10%
of the population, they
will increase lawlessness
as a means of complaint
about their conditions. Any
non-Muslim action that
offends Islam will result
in uprisings and threats:
